A popular election should be the American way.

If we truly live in a democracy, then every vote shouldcount. Every president should be electedby the popular vote, and not by the electoral college. This would make every American feel liketheir vote is important. This would alsomake every presidential candidate more responsive to the American peoplebecause they would know that their election or reelection would depend on thevotes of the people.

Popular election is the only truly fair way to elect the U.S. President

In the past, popular election of the U.S. President was not practical because we lacked the tools and technology to support a popular vote by such a large population as that of the U.S. Technology now exists, however, that would make a popular vote not only possible but efficient. Insuring that every citizen's vote is counted is the only truly fair way to determine which presidential candidate should emerge victorious and would eliminate the debate that regularly emerges as a result of the electoral process.
